I had a 8lb baby & my skin on my stomach is now loose and wrinkly. I try to work out but I feel its not going to get rid of this ugly skin. I'm not sure if I need any type of surgery, skin cream or laser Skin tighting.
Answer: What do I need to do to get rid of this type of skin? Thank you for your question and photos. Unfortunately, no amount of exercise is going to improve skin quality or remove stretch marks. A TT will remove all excess skin and create a flat tummy. Your sides will also be improved by cinching them in creating a much coveted waistline. I like to employ mesh to give patients the flattest abdomen possible and long term results. Mesh is to be considered only if you are done with pregnancies. Please view the article below to learn how the mesh works in conjunction to TT surgery. I hope this helps.Best wishes,Gary Horndeski M.D.

Answer: Tummy tuck usually the best option for post-pregnancy loose skin Tummy tucks do what exercise and diet cannot: Remove excess skin, repair muscle separation if necessary, and remove localized fat if necessary. There are some technologies that can tighten skin a little bit but none come close to what a tummy tuck does.

Answer: Tummy Tuck with liposuction Hi, mjf2014. Based on limited views of your body, you may get a great result/contour from liposuction of waists/flanks and tummy tuck. As you know, most women will have some degree of skin laxity and muscle laxity after pregnancy. Tummy tuck is a great procedure to get rid of excess abdominal skin as well as tightening the stretched out core muscle. If you are done having children, you will get a great outcome from tummy tuck with liposuction of the sides. Please make sure that you are at your stable, goal weight and that you are medically optimized. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon to be evaluated in-person. Good luck. - Dr. Kim
